Some days run smoother than others - not that any one day of the week is better than others, but Mondays can be challenging alone not even considering how many are complicated further by those Friday or Monday Holidays where you only return the Following week to cram the work of 5 days into four.
Only advice - when you get off work the previous week be sure to jot down the three most important things you need to have ready next week and three family research goals you want to knock out before next week arrives!
Consider it a five minute appointment for future success.

Chatting can be great for networking and just plain fun!
After burning a bit of midnight oil with the crew on Ancestorvilles facebook chatroom for the GraveYard Shift, I realized how naturally chatting becomes after you have been at it for a bit - and if you aren't comfortable spilling your beans, then just watch others' conversations and chime in whenever you have something relevant - even if just a joke or similar tale from your background. Yes, research headway is even made, but more importantly networking happens in chat rooms for future teamwork on your challenges and those of others.
After all we can use all the help we can get from the brick walls I've seen!

Genedocs blog begins today.
Genedocs = Genealogy + documents.
Genealogy and documents have been intertwined since people began storytelling by hand thousands of years ago. Now that it is the year 2011, we amazingly can tell family stories across the globe using computers, e-mail, and postings like this one found all over the Internet. Global networking is an unbelievable tool for family researchers!
Genedocs is currently a FREE program made up of several key parts for anyone with any level of interest in their family tree (just starting out to the most season brick wall buster) and/or preserving their family legacy:
1. Foundation: Genedocs Innovative Forms Library (A gold mine For researching MS Office Users - also works for mac users via open office applications minimum base of 30 Featured templates and infinitely expandable for improvements)
A. Have you ever seen a Hybrid Chart ?; with ancestry, portraits, siblings' data, source information, and unlimited customized comments?
Think about what you just read - that is everything every researcher wants and all on just one form!
- Ancestry CHECK
- Portraits of Ancestors as Adults and as Children!CHECK
- Sibling Data with portraits and spouse details CHECK
- Source Information - disclaimers, full source details, and even up
to vital certificates right on the chart!
ASTOUNDING CHECK!
- Unlimited Custom Comments - from you the compiler to emphasize what really matters and your journey's hurdles so the rewarding evidence is never lost again. Also includes privacy options to better handle who can view what you want them to. CHECK
B. Would you be interested in a photographic family group sheet that can
handle 26 members and their portraits all on one sheet?
For all of you with Group Photos you've spent years identifying each person shown - especially the big farming and other large families that other group sheets split up on several pages increasing the likeliness of being lost forever! Expandable enough to be a photographic and informative database in itself.
C. A Series of Life Legacy Changing Forms that help you handle the
inevitable - no, not taxes!
2. Genedocs E-Magazine: Usually published monthly NLT the 2nd
SATURDAY of months Jan - Oct/Nov - Nov depends entirely on reader
feedback. Each issue covers in better detail the following:
A. THREE of the Featured forms in a logical sequence through the many
common areas of research; (organization, interviewing, charting, photo
impact, military service, biographies, descend tracking, dating photos,
etc.)
B. A BONUS Form or template - new handy finds or creations
C. A monthly Series Exclusive Form Template or Tool - useful
concepts that may never be released again.
3. Where to access the Library and E-Magazines:

2). Send an e-mail from your regular account to
